Beyond HOPE

About Beyond HOPE

Beyond HOPE is a conference of hackers, phreaks, and netizens. Anyone is welcome, but we ask that you be prepared to listen at least half as much as you talk.

Where is Beyond HOPE being held?

The Puck Building is in New York City on Houston Street between Lafayette and Mulberry. It is just south of Greenwich Village, and on the border of the Soho district. There is a floorplan available.

Where to stay

There are no hotels near The Puck Building. Doesn't everyone have relatives in New York City? If you don't, here's a web site with lots of hotel links in New York City.

Directions

Subway: Take the Number 1 Local to Houston St and walk east. Take the 6 Local to Bleeker St and walk a block south. Take the A, C, or E train to Spring St and walk two blocks north. You're looking for the large building that says "The Puck Building" on it in large, friendly letters. Scholars of Shakespear's "A Midsummer's Night Dream" will recognize the statue of Puck.
Taxi: Tell the cabbie to go to Houston St and Lafayette.

How to get involved

you may e-mail a member of the ConCom (Convention Committee). Be sure to include what you wish to do at the conference.

Planned events and other details

Lectures, Seminars, and "hands-on" demonstrations of various techno-topics. What do you plan to do? (expect a hyper link here when we have a schedule planned - it's not ready yet).

Suggestions

Please Suggest things yourself, and they may wind up here. Suggestions rceived so far:

• A seminar on "low bandwidth" access to the Internet from text based terminals such as those at public libraries.
• A local area network on-site!! And hooked up to the Internet.
• Internet Links to the HIP Conference in The Netherlands being held at the same time. Voice, data, and video links are "in-work".

About the Puck building

An office building with "public space" available for rent at an exhorbitant mid-manhattan rate.

About NYC

What more needs be said? It's New York City, after all. The Bronx is up, and The Battery's down. Here's the Official New York City Web Site to help you. You'll also want to get tourist maps & brochures (if you have a high speed Internet link) from the New York Convention and Visitors Bureau Home Page.

It will get updated, but don't expect it to get pretty. This web page is a working information resource - not a "Graphic Web School".
